My travel style is that of a "Yes" girl. While I would like to say I've done it all, we know that is impossible with a whole world to see. What I mean is that I have slept on the floor of a train station, bunked up in VERY low budget hostels, and gone hours/days without WiFi, but also, I have been fortunate to travel more luxuriously and stayed in private villas and top-rated hotels in bucket list destinations. I believe that with each experience, I am gaining exposure to different cultures and learning more with all the travel ups and downs. It's important to find that perfect balance of feeling like your vacation was actually a relaxing vacation, but ending a trip knowing you have seen and done the things that made it all worth it for you. The adrenaline of sharing my knowledge and assistance with others embarking on a new adventure is (almost) as high as peaking Mt. Kilimanjaro and is definitely as rewarding. My go-to first step of being in any new city is taking a walk around, popping into local shops or restaurants, and taking a good look at Google Maps while doing so to get my bearings.
